the price of that promise

Christ bore the cost
the price of that promise
yet not Christ alone
the Father God in heaven
each of them sacrificed
yet part of the three-in-one
different dimensions of God
in this sacrifice,
giving us new life in Him
hope in Christ alone
walking with the Spirit inside
to our heavenly home
